Lenses Made of Ice,

The London correspondent of LIE Mon
iteur de la Photographic writes to that
journal that in the middle of the winter
which has just elapsed a student made o
lens of ice, with which he Lit the pipes of
some of tho skaters on the Serpentine by
means of the solar rays, an experiment,
he says, which was first performed in the
polar regions by DR.. Scoresby to the great
establishment of the sailors, for they could
not understand why the ice did not freeze
the beams of the sun. We may remark
thnt Professor Tyndall at times would set
fire, at the Royal institution, to little
heap OF gunpowder with rays from the
electric arc concentrated upon the powder
by means Of lens of ice, His explana-
ton was that although ice absorbs rays of
certain wave lengths, and Is grsiually
melted thereby, other waves it does not
absorb, and these latter pro1uce the heat

A Life saving Invention.

Robert F. Penney. employed at Win
chester's, who recently invented the idea
of having dangerous shafting inclosed in
a tin jacket. which would not revolve
with the shaft in ease Of an otherwise
dangerous contact, has now shown to
number Of mechanics who approve Of il
his latest life saving discovery. Instead
Of n pulley on an ordinary hanger he pro
poses to have q weight attached at the
back of all betting running through the
floors Of q factory. This would be at
tached TO the binder pulley, which press
ing against the belt tiRhtens it by chains.
Two long spiral springs are fixed in front OF
the binder pulley, TO give it u quick mo
ton when released, as here described.
The weight, hanging by tongs such rs ice
men have, would be fastened TO life line
running the whole length Of the shOp-say
200 feet. In case of a man getting caught,
nybody, without running the whole
length of the room, by pulling q line
hanging from the life line opens the jaws
OF the tongs, when the weight drops, and
aided by the springs the binder pulley is
in moment thrown out from its bearing
on the belt, thus stopping the machinery.
The bell pulls are at intervals, within
reach OF the workmen or workwomen.
The same device can he used as in the or
dinary tight and loose pulley system, the
weight being SO attached as to hold the
binder pulley while the shafting is in mo-

Of his wife making fresh purchases that
he flew into such passion that every one
ran away, leaving him to decide whether
he would vent his rage on poor Josephine,
